Incorrect. Spock fights to control his humanity as we all do. Spock represents the best of what it is to be human. Mind, heart and spirit. Data is just our generation's version of the Pinocchio story that never quite turns into a real boy. It's sad really. Data is a pathetic character in comparison.
